Welcome to my blog….

I realized that although I love Papaya’s site, the news function would work better for me as a blog. Therefore…I will just link this blog. I know your impressed.

So, it’s been a while since I’ve updated everyone on how I’m doing. Big news - I’m pregnant. Big laugh from the peanut gallery who knew this when I was moments past conception and have enjoyed the weekly updates on everything from Papaya’s movements on.

My happiest thing these days is that Christmas has passed and, therefore, Papaya’s birthday will be after Christmas. The farther she goes into January the better for future birthday parties when all of her friends are away visiting family over Christmas break. Also, we will all save a lot of money buying her gifts at the after Christmas sales rather than competeing with Christmas shoppers.

In non-baby news - I’ve had Adventure Dad home! He had Thursday through Sunday off and actually stayed home. I’m going to pretend that the building was not locked and he did it out of love for me. What he did do out of love was a lot - he filled up the hot tub, rubbed my back and was very patient with all of my slow moving creaking heavy pregnancy waddles from here to there. He is now very excited about becoming a father and can’t wait. I, on the other hand, am really enjoying the last few weeks of this pregnancy thing.

Okay, so much for that not having any baby news. But, come on, at this point everything we do seems to relate in some way to this large child I’m carrying out front of me. I wonder if that will change or increase with her arrival?

Also, we talked to Bill yesterday (our old roomate from Hawaii). He seems to be doing great and this summer will be leaving the USS Topeka, where he is NAV, and going to the Air Force War College in Alabama. Alabama? I guess when you are the Air Force you can put your base anywhwere. Thank goodness the Navy has some prime real estate that we’ve been lucky enough to live in. He’ll be in Alabama for a year on his JPME Phase I (which Adventure Dad did in Monterey) and then off to Omaha for a two year shore tour after that at STRATCOM. In Alabama he’ll be at least in the same state as Rob & Nancy Brooks (Jack and the dogs too) where Rob is starting his own First Command Office. In Omaha, um…..I don’t know anything good about Omaha. People seem to like it there, but it seems awful far from a lot of places.

Thats all for now….

Thursdays are for.....shopping & cleaning? by Papaya Mom on December 30th, 2004
It is almost the New Year and I've managed to almost completely waste another day of 2004! Another night of bad pregnancy sleep that lapsed in one hour intervals from midnight to ten a.

A New Year! by Papaya Mom on January 3rd, 2005
We had a great New Year eating Cajun food at Mor Mor Bistro with friends:) The music was a bit loud and Adventure Dad felt like he was out of place without his AARP card but we had a nice time nonetheless.

Like Maggie Gyllenhaal who nurses her 8 month old daughter in public and KNOWS it's not a big deal - I mean AAP says a MINIMUM of a year so why is 8 months SO shocking?Like Joley Fisher who had a homebirth and did not hide it like some pariah - her body did what it's meant to do in a place where fewer interventions lowered her risk of complications.
